Confirm order quantities before End of replenishment leadtime

[Former Member]

Dear all,

I wonder if there is a possibility within SAP (customizing setting and/or user exit) to confirm quantities in a Sales order on a Delivery date earlier than the End of the replenishment leadtime.

We have an Availability check that uses Replenishment leadtime.

Say our customer orders today, for delivery today (01.03.2012) and the End of the RLT is 08.03.2012.

Now in this particular case I want to be able to overwrite SAPu2019s proposal of the Delivery date (08.01.2012) into an earlier date, say 02.01.2012.

Once I try to do so, SAP gives me the following error message:

On the 02.03.2012, only 0,0000 PC available

Message no. AG802

The message is correct of course, but nevertheless I wan to confirm on 02.01.2012 because I will find a way to make the material available and so I want to confirm the customer his delivery on 02.01.2012 in the printed order confirmation.

How can I do that?

Thanks for any clues!

Kind regards,

Bart

Check the box fixed date and quantity at sales order line item ->schedule line tab. If you want to have this for all sales orders of a particular customer, then check the customer master ->sales area data -> shipping tab fields partial delivery per item/Max partial partial deliveries. Just press F1 in these fields, to get the details.

Hello Shiva,

Just tested this: ticking this box does not prevent the error from appearing...

Kind regards,

Then it looks you need to use user exit EXIT_SAPLATPC_002 mentioned in the OSS 1644443 - Documentation on User Exits in Availability check. to overwrite system results.
